Asher Keddie feels "pretty special" after Gold Logies nod

The Australian actress, who is best known for her roles in Offspring and Paper Giants: The Birth of Cleo, said that she never used to be a fan of popular awards ceremonies like the Logies but has now changed her mind.

Keddie told the Herald Sun: "I used to think it was the industry peer-voted stuff that was most important, but having won 'Most Popular Actress' last year, I think I've changed my mind.

"I was thrilled to accept that. It was a great show of faith from [the Offspring] audience to embrace a show that is not always easy to digest. I assume that's why I was celebrated then, so I'm quite keen on the popular awards now."

Keddie said of her Gold nomination: "I've never been quite sure what the Gold Logie means - and I'm not being facetious about that. I hope it means people have been enjoying my work in the projects that I have been committed to in the past two years."
